Our experienced team of Health and Safety experts can help guide you to the
right course and provide on-site training at your convenience.Advanced Safety
Group are committed to ensuring our services are delivered in such a way that
minimises our environmental impact, promotes business integrity and most
importantly helps to create a sustainable future for us all. As a family-owned
business, we want to make sure we do our part to ensure wherever possible we
lower our business’s carbon footprint, help make our surroundings even greener
and support local independent businesses. As such, Company Owners Steven Mclean
and Charlotte Knight in partnership with The National Trust are planting 500
square meters of woodland in the UK to help offset our carbon footprint and also
to help ensure UK woodlands keep on flourishing. Our aim is to double this each
subsequent year and who knows eventually we may well have just planted a forest
(stay tuned)! Further to this, to be more sustainable and socially responsible,
our company promise to wherever possible use local independent businesses for
our business supplies, travel and accommodation. We recognise as a family-run
business, that now more than ever in these uncertain economic times that
independent small businesses need our (and others’) support and it is up to us
all to help in this. As a national company, our instructors travel large
distances and as such our company has a policy of staying locally rather than
travelling back and forth up the motorways to minimise our fuel consumption and
carbon footprint. We use small independent companies for our accommodation
wherever possible, such as independent hotels and B&Bs in the location of our
work and use local amenities. In addition to this, we are going as paperless as
humanely possible, invoices/remittances are no longer printed but entirely
emailed and some of our exam papers are now totally digital. This is something
we continue to improve. Our staff even take notes on iPads when meeting with
clients rather than notebooks and pens.
